Sleep who needs it!

This morning I was super excited to get two hours of amazing sleep as I took over Robert's side of the bed at 5:30am. Ellie was sound asleep, Hadley was in her bed and after making sure my alarm was set for 7:30am, I rolled over... then after a little rumbling by Robert, but not much... Ellie was stirring, then Hadley was brought in by Robert and I sighed. I was able to get them both back to sleep as I was sandwiched in the middle. Then I remembered it was Leif's big day today, and I couldn't sleep. I knew that at that moment Leif, Maggie and Jay were all getting ready for his TOF repair. So I got up, I read her CB post from their preop day and I posted on CB my prayers for Leif...

This is the day that the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it!

Please Lord watch over Leif today while he's in surgery and after. Please give Maggie and Jay (and the rest of Leif's troop) patience while they wait and strength for the recovery process. Lord, please give wisdom and calmness to all the doctors, nurses and staff at Amplatz.

I know today we will be rejoicing!
We are thinking about you all today.
We know that you are so close to putting the period at the end of this chapter.
Stay strong!

So today... I am not going to complain, I am not going to be grumpy, I am not going to be sad, I am not going to do anything but rejoice in what I have, I am going to be happy for everything that is positive in my life and remember that the negative things, (which at the moment are low), will soon be over and most likely a lesson learned!
